Observer
Name Rob B
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks This was the longest burning meteor I have ever seen. It had a consistent brightness. And was very parallel to the horizon. Seemed to come from the east and head west-northwest. Total burn time was around 10 seconds. Amazing. I kept waiting for a boom. But didn't hear anything.
